forum in defense of the eighteenth amendment was conducted today by Dr. Robert Corradini of New York, executive secretary of the Alcoholic Information commission, before delegates of the Baptist Young People's union. Asserting that charges of the wets that alcohol consumption had increased under prohibition were unauthentic, Corradini said that consumed in 1928 only 40 America: of the amount of absolute alcohol used before prohibition. Benefits Are Seen "When a law eliminates 60 per cent of the alcohol that goes down the human throat for beverage consumption," said Corradini, "it would certainly appear better than any regulatory as in effect in Canada and Sweden." He gave statistics to show that alcoholic psychosis, alcoholic mortality and sclerosis of the liver had decreased greatly under prohibition. Corradini said that liquor, "like opium, to be used for medical purposes only," was the one system that Corradini would workicted to the wets blaming the drys for bootlegging.

"Those who have been drinking the bootleggers' liquor and giving them are not drys," he said. "The bootleggers can't be charged up on our side of the ledger." He denied that America was suffering from any crime wave due to prohibition. U. S. Has Advantage "In crime, America is better off than any other country, except perhaps England," he said.

Responding to queries from the young delegates, Corradini defended the boys and girls of today against the charge of alcoholism, declaring that more youths of 14 to 16 were drinking under the old saloon regime. "The only difference was that when these youths went into the saloon and spent the money they had earned as laborers, they considered themselves, men and were regarded he said. "Now boys of that age are in the high schools where they belong." CLUBWOMAN'S RITES MONDAY Mrs.F.W.Lichtenberg Is Dead at 85 Funeral services for Mrs. F.
